Hunts Point is a small residential community on a quiet peninsula along the eastern shore of Lake Washington, situated between Bellevue and Kirkland in King County. With a population of roughly 400 residents, the town has a distinctly peaceful character, including mature trees, waterfront views, and low traffic, which gives the area a sense of calm that long-time residents value deeply. Just off the SR-520 corridor and minutes from the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge, Hunts Point sits at the center of the Eastside while feeling removed from it, which is part of what makes it such a desirable place to grow older at home.
Families in Hunts Point benefit from close proximity to a full range of services in neighboring Bellevue and Kirkland, including major medical centers, specialty care providers, and everyday amenities. Overlake Medical Center is roughly four miles away, and Swedish Issaquah and Virginia Mason Kirkland are both within easy reach. For older adults managing chronic conditions, memory concerns, or recovery from a hospital stay, having that level of healthcare infrastructure nearby makes Hunts Point a genuinely good place to age in place.
